Scottish Diet Elevation Map (aka Fat Map) made from 100% beef dripping to draw attention ot hte high fat content in the Scotiish diet. At the Edinburgh International Science Festival, City Arts Centre Gallery, 2012

"Scotland, a beautiful small European country, is blissfully free of ageing populations. The Scots die young and don't cling on their pensions for decades like Japanese centenaires, sucking the blood of younger generations. What's their secret? The Scottish Diet, an age-old combination low in fresh fruits and vegetables and high in confectionery, fat enriched meat products, sweet and salty snacks accompanied by generous amounts of sugary drinks and alcohol.

"The golden rule of the Scottish diet is that fat, sugar and alcohol should each account for at least 30% of your daily calorie intake. You may eat one serving of fruit per week, preferably as jams or preserves." [Inspiration thanks to – http://fxcuisine.com]
